The Whole World’s aTILT
We’ve both been home from our BrainerdQuest for a few days, and we’re settling into a routine that’s 1/2 old habits and 1/2 new hopes. Things are different now. We set out to shoot a feature film, and we did it. We really did it. Even though things weren’t always smooth sailing, we came through [...]
Brainerd – Jessica = Nerd

One year ago (according to our blog, without which we’d have NO RECORD of what we’ve done) we’d just finished shooting. Jessica was in the process of editing. We were working with our musical director Jeffrey [...]
Busy Bees
We’ve been buzzing about lately, but that is no excuse for us to neglect our hive. Here are some updates on a little cross pollinating we’ve been doing: TILT BLOG! This week the blog for our new feature-length movie project (TILT) was launched. Be sure to check out the very first post, a great introductory [...]
